SWG PA(guild) Forums
 

Never really subjected them to critisms from this community, so I thought I would :)

-The grey tables don't match your background.
-Takes a fair way to scroll down to your first forums.
-The smaller shoutbox table looks about of place
-Too much gap between the start of the forums and the shotbox.
-Too big of a header, and leaves alot of space.
-Your postbit:

Page generated in 0.46155906 seconds (46.84% PHP - 53.16% MySQL) with 172 queries.

I think you should tone down with the hacks. That way, way, way over normal.

-header is too big as Tony said
-looks too basic and plain
-the queries!

Shhhh, you must not know of my mega-leet queries! Heh, the pages load fast enough that I really do not mind them. :p Actually, I was surprised too, but I guess I am on a good server or something. I talked to the host (its not a big company) and he didn't seem to mind I was running all the queries just as long as I kept within my 30gb/month limit :)

I am keeping it plain and basic because I don't know how to make a graphical uber one and because I don't want to buy one. On that note I probably won't change the grey postbit because its a light, soft color and it doesn't clash or look bad.

I agree the header is a little large, I have been meaning to fix that (damn lazyness).

And I will close up some gaps on the forums and see how that looks.

Thanks for the feedback so far, its much appreciated!

Expand the header to be the same width as the forum.

The shoutbox table is too small of a width.

Alright, I will look into that... and for your viewing pleasure, a threaded page full of posts.

*runs* Don't lynch me!

1. Your version of vB is way too old
2. I had no idea what your site was about until I saw the very bottom navbar.

Its 3 releases old... thats not too old in my book. Its too difficult to upgrade a hacked board so I figured I'd just leave it, I'm not worried.

As for what the site is about... well its a guild forum, so we aren't expecting a community to blossom on it aside from the guild. Our main site is www.kotorpa.com , and anyone in the SWG Community knows what a PA is. Thats why we aren't concerned with people not knowing what we are. Basically we only interact with the SWG community, so the people who do visit our site already know what its about, and if they don't, we have a website :)

Unless you like getting hacked, upgrade.

At least put the full title of the acronym in the header...

Well our new logo (as seen in my signature) has the full name, so we are planning on doing that.

Maybe I will pay to have my version upgraded - I worked too hard on my forums to have to reinstall my hacks and the tutorial doesn't do much for me.
